WAGO in Railway Systems

Solutions for Your Tasks

Whether railway vehicles, signal technology or train stations, WAGO products can be used almost anywhere electricity flows or signals are transmitted and converted in the railway industry. It’s not without good reason that operators, manufacturers and suppliers of railway and signaling systems count on WAGO. We have pioneered new electrical interconnection technology since 1977. It all began by moving away from screws – and to spring pressure connection technology – to set standards in railway technology.

German freight traffic would practically come to a standstill without diesel-powered shunting locomotives. The Voith technology company has developed a sophisticated start/stop system to reduce the high idle times that often exceed 60 percent. The special difference here: ‟OnEfficiency.StopStart“ can be retrofitted and adapted to different product series of any manufacturer.

Modernized Trains Reliably Controlled

Monterrey, a large city in northern Mexico, close to the California border: about half of the 1.2 million inhabitants use the railway network daily – with second-hand trains from Germany. GEZ Rail Solutions GmbH relies on components from WAGO for the complete technical renovation. The WAGO I/O System 750 XTR plays a central role in train control. It meets the strict requirements of railway technology – including environmental requirements – and opens up a wide range of applications.

How a Train Trip Becomes a Luxury Experience

From a simple trip to an evocatively moving moment: there are many stories about train travel – some are entertaining, others irksome, but they seldom revolve around style and comfort. This is not the case for the cutting edge Luxon panorama rail car – and the luxury is more than skin deep. The operators accepted no compromises when selecting the technical equipment, and decided to use WAGO's rail-mount terminal blocks, pluggable connectors, and interface electronics.

Railway Signal Technology: Digital Engineering Provides Greater Efficiency in Signal Cable Distributor Construction

Making the development of signal cable distributors more efficient – that’s the goal of cable and telecommunications specialist Comtec. In WAGO’s Smart Designer configurator, this international company has found a digital engineering platform that provides reliable, sustainable support for this endeavor – for example, for the rail industry, which is very standards-driven.

Condition-Based Monitoring of Rolling Stock

“Condition-based monitoring” promises to make maintenance of railway vehicles more efficient, in terms of both time and costs. Westfälische Lokomotiv-Fabrik Reuschling GmbH & Co. KG shows how railway operators can implement condition monitoring for their rolling stock.

Infrastructure in Railway Stations

Railway stations as railway facilities and reception buildings consist of various equipment and systems that are powered by electricity and whose functionality must be monitored. This includes lighting controllers, evacuation systems and low-voltage switchgear that ensure passengers’ comfort and safety. In railway stations too, WAGO provides failsafe power supplies and data recording for various analog and digital signals.

WAGO Technology in Railway Vehicles

For more than 40 years, WAGO has been a railway staple. The superior operator-independent quality of WAGO’s electrical interconnection technology, which features quick and easy handling, is only one of the reasons that this vibration-proof spring pressure connection technology has become and industry standard. You can find our technology aboard electric and diesel locomotives, in passenger railroad cars and double-decker vehicles and in traction vehicles for regional, local and high-speed trains, trolleys and subways.

Applications in Trains

Durch die riesige Produktpalette der Verbindungs-, Interface- und Automatisierungstechnik von WAGO WAGO’s enormous product range of electrical interconnection, interface and automation technologies allows us to provide an appropriate, reliable solution (e.g., MCS Connectors) that can be installed quickly and easily for any application – from space-limited applications in cabs, doors, lighting and air-conditioning technology, to drives and converters, switch and fuse panels, battery chargers, toilets and junction boxes that require durability.
